Getting rid of June Bugs

[76truck]

Have a swarm of them suckers at night and I'm trying to find something to keep them at bay. What have yall used to kill them or keep them away ?

The grub worms you find in your soil become the adult. It is difficult to get rid of ALL the grubs. Treat your soil is the only way I know to control them.

My dogs rid me of most of mine. They eat em! I catch what i can and keep alive for fishing trips

I had a cocker spaniel that would eat them too. My beagle I have now will eat a few but not like the cocker did.

If you live rural they will be even harder to control. I'm starting to see some in my part of the woods.

I really have no answer for you. But after reading that 'end of times' thread, I figured that we could use a laugh.

You need to treat your yard as the juvinile june bug is a grub in your yard. Treat your yard with a grub killer in late fall after the adults have laid their eggs. Once you see the june bugs flying you are too late...

i have a male yellow lab that i could rent out, he weighs around 110lbs and has a mouth like a vacuum when it comes to june bugs!

It is a longer process if you have gone the chemical route in the past, but go organic.

Specific to the June bugs - beneficial neomatodes

Once you go organic, you don't kill off all the good bugs. Then everything stays in balance. Build up the soil nutrients and the good stuff survives.

Since we have gone organic, we don't have fleas, fire ants, roaches, small # of June bugs. But we do have lots of worms, chameleons, bees, etc
